About: The reflection of a person reflects how a domesticated animal will come to be. Thoughts like these make me want to understand more of why we were put on this world. Animals make me happy. They do things so flowingly and naturally and it’s so unique because it’s so simple. They don’t want to do it, they just do it. Each dog and cat all have their quirks and differences which is why they are so special to me being that all animals are special as well. These thoughts and experiences help me into exploring more of what I want to be as a person with animals and how this could help me to become what I aspire in being and beyond. I go to the gym almost everyday about an hour and a half. I go out most of the weekends usually between 2pm to 1am. 3 adults also live in our household and they already take care of most of the pets in our household. Every single moment counts as animals are in every single moment as well since they are being. To this moment I am still learning to understand all of my pets, they all have their differences and that is what I love so much. I have be different with each one. Adapting is such a big challenge for me because it can require a vast amount of patience and effort. Sometimes things will not go the way you want it to and that’s ok. There will always be another moment to try. These thoughts and reasons are what I want to apply when I’m studying new animals and how I can gain their trust.

“So grateful for Brenda! We needed a last minute sitter for our pup due to a cancellation and I don’t think we could’ve picked anyone better. She was so welcoming!

About: I adopted my rescue dog Fitzy in 2021, and he quickly became such a special part of my life. Watching him grow into the loving, happy, and well-adjusted dog he is today has been incredibly rewarding. Caring for him has taught me a lot about patience, trust, and understanding each pet’s individual personality and needs. I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. And I love when Fitzy has a play mate too! I work from home full time, so your pup will have plenty of company throughout the day! Our routine includes morning and evening walks, with shorter potty breaks during the day. A few times a week, I like to hit the trails at Sea Summit for some extra fresh air and exercise. At home, there’s a patio perfect for sunbathing and a window sill with a prime spot for neighborhood watch! I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I have a pet-friendly home with a secure patio and plenty of cozy spots to relax. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you know your fur child is happy and well cared for.

Your dog is in great hands with Doreen! She was so kind, easy to communicate with, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with her. She kept me updated throughout the day and was clearly very caring and attentive. I’d definitely book with Doreen again!
Twix had such a great time with Claudia and her sweet dog, Wally! She took them to the park where twix had lots of fun, and kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages. It was so reassuring to know Twix was having fun and being well cared for. We really appreciate all the attention she gave him. Highly recommended.
Cassandra was wonderful! She gave very clear communication from the time that she accepted the booking. When I arrived, I noticed how clean and save her home looked that made me feel really comfortable. Leaving me there! Cassandra was very friendly and Mia felt it ease right away!!! Cassandra and her son took such great care of Mia and sent me pictures :) I could tell from the photos Mia was really relaxed and not stressed! Cassandra has a lot of of experience with dachshunds or any other breed of dogs that you need to be careful with their backs. Mia seemed like she had a great time and got lots of snuggles and two walks!! I would definitely bring me a back to Cassandra!
Savannah was amazing! She seemed so nice upon arrival and our dog very willingly went with her when it was time for us to leave. She sent us photo updates throughout the night which was much appreciated and our dog seemed so happy. Would definitely recommend her!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your San Juan Capistrano commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
